and tramped upon. Those who
stampeded reaSsembled later in
another portion of the park.
The crowd appointed a deputation from
among their number to visit the Home
Office. Upon their arrival here the
deputation found the Home Secretary
absent, but they secured an interview
with the Minor Secretary, who prom
ised he would represent their views to
the Home Secretary upon his return.
A large crowd had followed the depu-
tation from the Park to the Home Of
fee, and congregated about the build
ing. After the interview was concluded,
the police charged the crowd, but were
met with resistance. a short, but
sharp struggle followed in which the

crowd were injured, and a number Of
arrests were made.

stone said their opponents were grow
ing weaker, while their own forces
were becoming stronger. He was &C
cused of cooperating with those whom
he once denounced as marching with
Indignation of the Empire. All
the objections then presented
had passed away. He did not believe
that any Irish member of Parliament
now contemplateS or desired the dis
memberment of the Empire. They
wanted a union of hearts and not a
union on parchment and paper. Why,
he asked, should he be accused of gross
inconsistency, because he allied him
self with Mr.. Parnen and the Irish
party who were acting on lines
of moderation which assured
them they could in the end secure
home rule. He fatty denied that his
course was inconsistent. When told
that he had passed coercion measures
he could only say that measure such
as was contested at last session had
never been passed while he was in Office.
That measure was not aimed at the
suppression of crime so much as at the
liberty of the press and the
right of public meeting as its applica-
ton proved. Lawful meetings had
been prevented. The act had been
used in such a manner as to painfully
and flagrantly show that its provisions
were different from any act previously
passed. 1t was more subtle and more
fatal to the liberty of the Irish people
than any bill ever passed.
1t was enrolled as permanent piece of
legislation as much as the Reform Bill
and the Bill of Rights. Coercion had
utterly failed.

a Baby Catching Horses.

An eccentric friend of mine at the

stray truths that get lost under other

animals much more mysterious and

There is, he declares, great deal OF
magnetism or fascinating power in .
baby, to which all dumb creatures are
very susceptible. He is personally &C.

use by its male parent as kind OF .

Cling for an hour have often failed to
accomplish. The principle might bS

ReDubIican National Committee.

PTTTSBURG, Pa, October 22.-The
Chronicle Telegraph to-day prints
Chairman Jones' call for the National
Republican committee to meet at the
Arlington Hotel, Washington at 1870
a. m. December, 9Th to fix the date and
place of the next National Republican
convention. Speaking of the probable
place Of holding the next convention,
Chairman Jones said that applications
would probably be received from New
York, Saratoga, Philadelphia, Balti-
more, Chicago, st. Louis, and in fact
all the larger cities of the country.
Chicago's claims were good because
Of the central location and good oc-
commodations. In reply to the query:
who are the most prominent republican
candidates for presidential nomin-
ationsP Jones said, 1t would not be in
good taste for me to advance any opin-
ion. There will be number OF good
names before the convention and if 1
ommitted one it might be regarded as
intentional. Mr.. Blaine is in good health
and first class spirits. What want to
see is a man nominated who can lead
the party to victory.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-R. G. Dun &
Co., in their weekly review of trade
say: The improvement in prices for
which men looked in vain a week ago
has appeared in several markets. Stocks
sunk last Saturday to the lowest aver

proved considerably during the week.
Wheat has risen 2t cents. Specula-

slightly declined.
Cotton is shade higher with large
speculated purchases.
Oil has risen cents.
Sugar is made strong by the fOrma-
ton of trust to control refining.
Wool is more firm, but not higher.
Leather market is better.
Prices of cattle are shade higher.
Coffee fell to 10 cents Wednesday,
but has recovered slightly.
Copper is cents lower, but tin ad-

trade and industry, outside of specula-

WASHINGTON, Oct. ia committee
from the Agricultural Convention call
ed on Secretary Fairchild to-day to ask
him to over-rule the the decision of the
First Comptroller to the effect that the
experimental station did
not carry with it an appropriation.
The Secretary informed the committee
that he had no authority in the prem
ises, but agreed to refer to the First
Comptroller the question as to whether
the Department shall ask Congress to
make deficiency appropriation dating
back to the time of the passage of the
bill.
The delegation then called on Comp
troller Durham, who informed them
the act in question was bunglingly
drawn and that he could make nothing
out Of it.

What AmIIn nn2

The sysptoms of Biliousness are
but to well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom a
breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
but none for solids of a morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it is not white and furred,
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out
of order and Diarrhea or Constipation
may be a symptom or the two may
alternate. There are often Hemor-
rhoids or even loss of blood. There
may be giddiness and often headache
and acidity or flatulence and tenderness
in the pit of the stomach. To correct
all this if not effect cure thy Green's
August Flower, it cost but a trifle and
thousands attest its efficacy.
